Switched out the nasty stock bulbs with blue LEDs, looks sick to me! What do you guys think?

 

very nice...I had something in mind like that but taking apart the dash wasn't something I was planning on doing any time near...

 

thanks, purecrazed, it's not hard at all and it only takes like 20 min

 

Looks good! I have blue LED's in mines as well, did you leave the bulbs up in the top of the cluster? how do you see your needles?

 

thanks klepto, i took out the bulbs up top, they made the gauges look like shit. If i cant see the needles ok, i'll put them back in. basically the needle will block the odometer btwn 60-90 so i'll be able to tell how fast i'm goin

 

if the needles were blue, it would look really hot!!!!!

 

i know dude, i've been tryin to figure out a way, but it's impossible

 

Instead of that cluster up top you can either put a mini strip neon or blue LED's shinning down on the guages

 

Are the bulbs a 194 wedge? Sorry but maybe I read it wrong what did you say about seeing your needles. I didn't get what your sentence was trying to convey. Were you trying to say you can't see your needle from 60-90 mph?

 

blacura, what kind of blue leds did you use, and where can i get them ? looks great... very sleeper.

 

Yea the bulbs are 168 (194)

Jamolie, you can get the bulbs at autodynamic.com, thats where I got mine

 

I remember last year on Ebay someone was selling something that made gauge needles shine with Blue LEDs. I read over the description and they would work with out needles, now you just have to find them again. I would check ebay, but they do exist so now it is just time to search for them.

 

really? hrmmmm... (scratches chin) if anyone finds them please tell me, that would look real neat with blue guages and blue (or red) needles

 

Yo' Klepto, is that really you in the pic. I've always wanted to ask but never got around to it.

 

haha, no thats not him- do a search for "woo wooo" and you should find what you are looking for.



Good job on the lights blacura, Im liking them.

 

HAHAHHHAA right click, save as this and all shall be revealed

right click, save as here

 

here is a link to a needle kit that should fit your car. If you put these on they should look dope.

Yea those would look super pimp, but how hard are they to install? I dont wanna mess up my needles and end up paying hella money to get a whole new guage cluster

 

I had those leds installd for a while, but i am a perfectionist, and they began to piss me off. I couldnt deal with the hot spots from the bulbs, and the kinda dead area near 80-90mph. If anyone wants my old blue led bulbs, bought from Autodynamic for $30, i will let them go for $15. Only used like1-2 months. PM, if interested.

 

that shit looks WICKED

 

thanks guys, the thing about the needles is you need lighted needles and we dont have that. Our needles dont come out either. I dont think there is a possible way to make LED or indiglo or lighted needles.

klepto, they're VERY easy to install, 8 screws. Takes about 20 min if you know what you're doin. Do a search, and if you cant find anything, i'll post directions here.

 

awww crap, well i gotta 97, so my needles, dont light up...mann that sucks. O well

 

Klepto...LOL you're a funny motherfuckin dude man. That shit cracked me the hell up. That can't be you man. I'm still laughing. Where in Oakland are you at? I used to go to Alameda all the time.

 

dude dennis, it's not him. it's bubb rubb, the whistler tip fan and internet sensation.

klepto, no 1st gen CLs have light-up needles, not even the 98-99

 

HAha, I posted it up a LONG time ago, Bubb Rubb was a star, i'll post more funny ass pics of him like this..



if you want. I actually live in alameda right now. When/where did you use to goto alameda?

 

Good thing that isn't you or I'd have to make fun of you. I used to go to bayfarm. I think that's what it's called. You go over the bridge and it's by the golf course. You may know my cousin Hilarie Fong. I don't know how old you are though.

 

take it to PM you hijackers!!!

 

nice work. I have been thinking of removing my indiglos for awhile and converting the whole dash to blue, i might need to do this soon. As for the hot spots, i have read that you can make the bulbs shine at a wider angle as opposed to striaght up (eliminating most hot spots) but sanding the tips down Might want to give it a try
